Three days before the first round of the presidential election, the director of The Secret Agent, who won an award at last year's Cannes Film Festival, shared his anxiety with Ouest-France. An unconditional supporter of Lula, he fears that history may repeat itself. The director, whose film was praised for its storytelling and direction, expressed concern over the political climate and the potential outcome of the election. He has been a vocal advocate for Lula, a former president who was imprisoned and later released after legal battles. His worries are rooted in the fear that the nation could face a return to past political turmoil, similar to what occurred during the early 2000s. This period was marked by political instability and significant social unrest. The director's comments come at a time of heightened tension, with many citizens watching closely as the election approaches. His voice, both as an artist and a supporter of Lula, adds to the growing discourse about the future of the country.
